BABE RUTH SAYS: To Keep in Condition by Mild Training Which Filled the Bill Besides Enabling Me TOOK UP GOLF NO HIGHER INES Five American Beauties Who Are Suggested as the Prettiest. Women in the United States by Readers of The Evening World IF ASSESSORS BAS VALUES ON RENTS Needed Additional Revenue of $50,000,000 Can Be Raised on Landlords’ Boosts. INSTANCES ARE CITED. First Time Definite Rental Fig- | uregAre Available, Through | Mayor’s, Committee. Tenants throughout New York are| waiting with considerable interest to learn the amounts of assessed val- ues placed on the houses where they afe having their rents boosted. For probably. the first time in thetr experience, the deputy tax adséssors have definite knowledge of rentals | from the various properties on which to base their estimates of values, | Mayor Hylan already has called the attention of the Tax Department to thé+pecullar situation, by taking advantage of which the assessors can provide a means to raise the $50,000,- 000 of additional revenue needed for | 1921, without boosting the present tax rate, If the additional taxable values re- quired are supplied by a gener hoisting of values.all the way up the line, landlords who have tried to be moderate with their tenants will be loaded with the same burden as those | zed out all the tvaffic who have sue will bear. To avoid this injustice the assessors have but to look into the records of the Mayor's Committee on Rent Prof- iteering and the Municipal Courts. where tenants complain against the rentals exacted by thelr larfllasds. to The tax not try determine the question whether these rentals are just or unjust, All they need do is to take the word of the owner that the rentals demanded are justified by the values of the proper- tles and let landlords pay taxes in proportion to the benefits they derive from their properties. For instance: Tenant at No. 138 West 100th Street reports to Mayor's Committee that Goodwin & Goodwin, No. 260 Lenox Avenue, demand $81.50. tok partir renting for $27.
